Submission Guide

General

All works must be complete, we will not accept works in progress under any circumstances.

Fiction

The Next Generation, 25 Years of Fan Fiction!

Ideally I would like to publish 25 pieces of fan fiction but we have to limit each issue...

One major work, up to novella size 17,500 words

Two short stories under 7,500 words

At least four flash fiction between 300 – 1,000 words

Adult Trek Anthology

Submissions are limited to 10,000 words or less

Several short stories under 7,500 words (the final figure will depend upon the submissions received)

At least four flash fiction between 300 – 1,000 words (this number may change depending upon submissions received)

Editing

It is the author's responsibility to submit their work
with correct grammar, spelling (British or American spellings are fine,
but be consistent within your own work) and punctuation. See the Chicago
Manual of Style for more information: http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/home.html.

Poetry

Traditional or modern

Artwork

Cover art. In general, each issue will only have color artwork on the front and back cover and the inside front and back cover. We are looking for a color artwork for the cover specially made for us and in return we will give you the inside back cover to display a collage of your Star Trek artwork with a bio and website URL prominently displayed. This is a fanzine, so no professionals unfortunately.

Interior artwork. Ideally there should be a title page graphic for every story. This can be pencil, ink, wash, artistic photoshopping, renderings, etc. Incidental artwork, such as can be used for transitions or to introduce internal works, is greatly appreciated.

A cover page template will be sent to artists to design their cover
art for full bleed and an internal page template for page illustration
art. Refer to the last issue of Personal Logs for examples of previous
artwork.

Comics and cartoons may be as large as 6 - 10 pages or as small as a single panel cartoon - these are even more welcome as they create visual appeal.

All artists will be given full credit for their original works.

Formatting

Every publication we put out is carefully designed to showcase the work of the contributing writers and artists. Choice, size and style of font is the responsibility of the editorial staff, and our selection is final although we will take input.

We require a word processor file copy of your story in Word Perfect, MSWord or
(preferably) OpenOffice .doc format that is formatted the way you would prefer it to appear
and that has been edited for writing style, spelling and grammar.
